SMART CHARGERS

.
The stock battery for the boat is a 7.2 volt 1800mah, (milliamp) 6 cell battery pack. The normal running time for the battery is 15-20 minutes, on a single charge. A 5000mah Battery will give you an extra 40-50 minutes of running time on a charge.
One thing to keep in mind when it comes to battery life is how you drive the boat. When the motors get hot the batteries will run out faster, so it is is a good idea if you want your battery to last longer to let it rest until the motors cool.

Ni-Cd batteries are the most well known kind of battery. NiCd batteries have a "memory effect"meaning that when the NiCd batteries are not properly charged and discharged that can actually lose that capacity to hold a full charge over time. When NiCd batteries are properly maintained, they are known to be able to produce 1500 cycles of use (meaning charge and discharge) and with the low price point, NiCd batteries are therefore known as a good value. Proper Charging - Using a proper NiCd battery charger is an excellent way to ensure the longest life possible for your rechargeable batteries. Proper battery chargers sense the voltage change once a battery has been fully charged. You can also purchase special battery chargers or controls that can charge, discharge, cycle and balance your batteries. Many encourage "trickle" charging or slow charging NiCd batteries for long life. Don't forget, NiCd batteries may heat up during charging. Let the battery cool off before using it and let it cool before charging it.
Storing NiCd batteries - You want to store NiCd batteries in a cool, dry place to reduce the risk of corrosion and damage to the batteries. Because batteries lose their charge naturally over time, you need to charge NiCd batteries once per year and exercise them approximately monthly. Exercise is the process of discharging the battery, usually up to one volt to ensure the maintenance of proper capacity. Discharging properly can actually recondition an NiCd battery. Generally, an NiCd battery has a shelf life of six months (give or take) so take that into consideration when you make your storage decisions. Specifically, NiCd batteries will lose approximately 10% of their power per month while in optimal storage. General Rechargeable NiCd Battery Info - Most rechargeable NiCd batteries come completely discharged and need to be fully charged when they arrive. In many instances you won't get the optimal power from the battery until it's been discharged and recharged two or three times.

NiMH Batteries
We know that NiMH batteries are the industry standard in the RC world and that's because they are consistent, reliable and have a long shelf life. NiCd batteries are considered to be a good value for folks just playing around with RC but NiMH with their longer shelf life and high level of performance are a great choice for today's RC enthusiast. Lower amp charging is better - When you need to recharge NiMH batteries, a big thing to consider is how quickly you plan to charge them and at what voltage. If you charge it at a higher rate there is no performance improvement. Professionals recommend a charge rate of 3-5 amps. A slower, less amperage charge will yield the best results. Don't Discharge All The Way - If you want to discharge your NiMH battery pack, you can safely do so at pretty much any rate, but you should not discharge them completely. Because NiMH batteries are not susceptible to the same "memory effect" we see with NiCd batteries, you should leave a little charge in them. if you are planning to store your batteries for more than a week, you should actually make sure your NiMh batteries are at about half charge.
